The reason people are still at the criminal site is due to the pure volume of posts in which to engage. As I-Hang gets more frequent posters they will of course grow. The biggest obstacle is breaking people's habit. Once longs experience a site devoid of paid NSS basher mods they will come more often and be more inclined to invite others.

Ihang might also want to think about a promotion to incentivize folks to make the switch, perhaps trading some advertising with a vendor for a specialized offer to new and current I hang members from that vendor?
